I don’t know who Ashley Simpson was until I heard the song “Pieces of Me”. I didn’t even know that she’s the sister of Jessica Simpson. It actually came as a surprise to me because they are so different from each other, personality-wise and style-wise. Quite frankly, I like …

Fall in love with me. Fall in love with someone today. Do it easily by the assistance of one of the most touching songs ever written by the already almost perfect band, Collective Soul. A group of five overly genetically lucky …

It seems to me that the rock song ‘You Belong to the City’ that became popular in the mid 80’s (1985, to be exact) tries to tell something and not just merely describing in a reflective way by using some sort of a second person address (like talking …

One of the most popular, trendsetting music artists of the century, Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance single will certainly go down in history as the lady’s trademark song. It has all the elements of what defines the singer: a tune that is fast beat, one you can dance …
